Jack London inn view of the Bay spent the night, the hotel is right next to the tracks of the major N-S rail line, a train every hour at least all night long wife was a little annoyed but it was all I could do not run down and watch them go by, around 3:15am one went by that was a very long freight for 15min around 35mph engines in the front, middle and rear the sounds were so cool... Irish pub nearby and a nice seafood joint... Staff very nice, check in and out easy... The price, location and if one can deal with a little funky it works for me... I'll be back...

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to stay because I was not feeling safe due to enclosed space and there was no window to allow air into the room. I was feeling claustrophobic. Lots of potential and needs improvements. It was also very noisy due to motorists. This place is not ideal for people who don’t like noise. Staff were all very helpful and friendly.
